Author's Notes: Okay, so to avoid anger and confusion. I'll put Part II in the same story! ^^ I wanted to get started on it soon but I didn't want to go in and make a whole new story on the site. So from here on, it's kind of the sequel. Sorry for everyone I bummed out by saying, "No this is the end- there'll be a sequel." Heehee, turns out it was only half-true! So it's kind of like it never ended, huh? XD I fail.

Even so, the way this story is... It's kind of different from my other stories in the sense that- I don't want explainations in this one. I don't want to EXPLAIN Zero's reasonings concerning Yuuki as deeply as I would attempt to do with my other fics. I type this story in crimson font and I think it makes my brain go, "drama... just type it- don't think..." so that's what I do. Sorry if you like plausible reasonings... I do too actually and I like it when I can think of them (makes me feel smart!) but... this story is cool in its drama. XDDD

Oh yah- this takes place three months after Part I.

Warnings: Musings and BL-y-ness

Summary: Three months pass and I didn't expect it to fade. And when it only gets stronger for you, I come.

Read, Enjoy and Review!

He wondered why, when one falls out of love, it hurts even though the other person may have never even known they were loved in the first place. Case in point: Zero had fallen out of love with Yuuki somehow and he felt a bit of an ache in his heart. Why should he hurt? She was now just strictly a sister to him and even if he happened to see a little more leg or chest than she meant to show, he just casually continued on with what he had been doing. It was wierd- even to him. Of course, Yuuki had never known in the first place that he was in love with her, but now she wouldn't have to worry. Zero had unconsciously waited three months for this.

For three months he had agonized over what to do with his sutured heart. Should he stay with Yuuki? With a certain male brunette in love with the hunter, the pureblood was bound to be out of Zero's way in the race for Yuuki's affections. Or... should he return to the secure and warm arms of said pureblood. Kaname... It hadn't gotten any better, but if there had to be a condition- it would be that it has gotten worse. The gentle garnet stare was nearly always on him whenever Zero was in range and yet, Kaname made no advances. Even when the ex-human fed from time to time (no longer putting up with starving himself), the pureblood gripped whatever surface he could to keep from touching the other. The last time Kaname said anything about loving Zero was that summer night three months ago, but since then, it was a little hard to get anything more than a look and an armorous sigh from those sculpted lips.

But then, did that mean Zero had kept him waiting for too long? The hunter had promised that he'd consider it and he did! The whole time. At first, he was devastated when he began losing his lustful and then lover-like affection for Yuuki. He almost didn't want to change, but when he thought about Kaname... and how the pureblood must have gone through this very same thing, Zero figured that he could do it too. He shouldn't fight his heart and he would give what he had left to Kaname, if the older vampire would recieve it... It'd been a rough past few months, but was time to end it. Or maybe start it. Zero could not let himself be weak- like the pureblood had said.

Zero dropped his head into his hands as he leaned his elbows on the sink. He had been scrutinizing the slightly tired boy in the mirror as he prepared himself to go to Kaname. What would he do if Kaname had only been smitten for that short period of time? Maybe the brunette wasn't as serious as Zero took it and he'd overanalyzed it...? No... Zero ran his fingers through his shower-dampened hair with a slight smirk. He would count his chickens before they hatched. The hunter straightened himself up and left his room.

Kaname didn't hold the lavender gaze as he opened his balcony's glass doors. Zero held his head high at this bad sign and came in, shutting the door and curtains behind him. It was the vampires' equivalent to dinnertime for humans, but here the pureblood was, still up in his room. Numerous papers laid on the surfaces around the room and it looked strangely messy for Kaname, but it had been like this for a while. Zero watched the other stand near a dresser so he could grab at that instead of the hunter and wait. Kaname obviously thoought that the silver-haired vampire was just here to feed and then leave, just like the past few months. However, Zero just looked around the room at the papers.

"Are you ever going to clean this up?" he murmured randomly, his cheeks flushing lightly. Way to start...

Kaname narrowed his eyes suspiciously. Zero hadn't made much conversation since they'd stopped their growing relationship.

"When I have a reason to, I will..." he told him, the words sounding too harsh.

Zero frowned and his fingers curled into loose fists. Don't tell me you've... forgotten...

"Oh..." His voice was rough.

Zero wanted to say it, but didn't want to sound desperate... But he could be, though. Not a night had gone by without the compelling pureblood in his dreams.

But little did the hunter know, it was the same with Kaname regarding Zero.

Kaname's eyes softened and he almost whispered, "Zero..."

As the violet orbs met his hesitantly, as if awaiting insult, Kaname's heart pounded in his ears. How long had it been since he'd held Zero? Too long. He hadn't even let that sweet name on his tongue since that last time. Zero. But he felt like years had passed since Zero looked at him for this long. That hug they had shared the last time was exclusive to that night because they hadn't had a tender moment since. Zero had become a bit aloof and Kaname had also gradually grew distant to protect Zero from himself. But Kaname's drift was mostly from his own doubt. He felt like Zero was trying to forget their clear attraction for each other. Ever a user of denial, Kaname would not put it past the prefect to try and pretend it never happened in favor of their dear girl. The pureblood had long ruled out a real lover's love for Yuuki, even before he fell in love with the beautiful Zero Kiryuu, but Zero was not him.

So Zero came forward a step just like that night days and days ago and said, "... Do you still want me?"

Kaname was sure his heart- his pureblood, forever pumping heart- had stopped for a full beat or two at that soft, serious question. He was so sure that such a sentence was only meant for those too few summer nights and was never to be heard again from his paramour.

"Did... you want to be mine?" Kaname asked, almost too scared to really answer.

Zero closed his eyes and took a breath. When it came down to it... there was no where else he would rather be for the rest of his life. No one he would want to be with like this. Yuuki would grow up and find someone who wasn't a brother to her like he and Kaname were. She would get married and have babies. She would most likely remember her brothers, and they- her. She would have the human life that Zero used to envy her for. But now, Zero wondered if he were human, would he still love Kaname? Zero opened his eyes and a rare, soft smile graced his face as he fluidly closed the distance between him and Kaname's body and lips. Yes. Probably.

As the silken lips meshed with his in a rush of stimuli and passion, Kaname couldn't find it in himself this time (after all three months of successfully doing so) to keep his arms down. He crushed Zero to him and kissed back with months' worth of wistful dreams and idle affection, making Zero gasp. As the hunter's blood ran hotter and their bond sang, Zero pulled back and embraced Kaname, nuzzling his face into his neck. It was part of the hug and the pureblood did the same, breathing in Zero's scent. Mental scars couldn't even make the ex-human ruin this moment unwittingly and all Zero could say, or rather, sigh, was, "I want to be yours more than you know..."
